The fall winds are blowing down Brady Street
again. I have been thinking about all the places
I need to visit in the area. I still have not
checked out Hybrid Lounge at Van Buren
and Brady, I hear they have a nice atmosphere
that is unique and comfortable. Then there is
Dry Hootch near Brady and Humboldt, they
are now open regularly and they have made
that property look so good, I really want to
try their coffee.

Saturday October 23, 7 pm
Bag It: Is Your Life Too Plastic? is a film that follows Jeb
Berrier, an average American guy who is admittedly not a

bags. This simple action gets Jeb thinking about all kinds
of plastic as he embarks on a global tour to unravel the
complexities of our plastic world. When Jeb’s journey takes
a personal twist, we see how our crazy-for-plastic world
has finally caught up to us and what we can do about it.
Today. Right now. This one-time Milwaukee premier of Bag
It benefits the Urban Ecology Center. Jeb Berrier will be at

a brief history lesson
Milwaukee —
More than a one Horse Town
One way to enjoy history is to transport
oneself to another era. To daydream or
romanticize what it would be like to live
in a different age. There are various
vehicles that can assist that journey, like
a good book, a period film, or listening to
the memories of our elders. My recent
interview of 101 year old Lillian Conway
(August issue) had one particular vision
that stuck with me. That was when
Lillian fondly recalled hanging out on the
corner of Water and Pleasant Streets as a
young girl to watch horse teams pause to
drink at a community trough.
While it’s no secret that horses once
pulled wagons through our streets, I
never really grasped just how important
and how prevalent these magnificent
creatures were. Our economy and our
culture were reliant upon, and centered
on, the horse. My good friend Bob Ehlert
shared a book with me by Heart Prairie
Press called, “Working Horses, Looking
back 100 years to America’s HorseDrawn Days”. That and other research
will help us take a journey back to an
era-not all that long ago--where cars and
trucks did not exist, but Milwaukeeans
and the products they produced and
procured were no less mobile.
The many Native American tribes that
gathered along the waters at what
became Milwaukee used horses to battle,
to transport people and products, to help
tame the land, and for recreation. Some
of Solomon Juneau’s (Milwaukee’s first
non-native permanent resident) earliest
accounts include horse racing and games
8
of la cross on a sandbar near the mouth
of the Milwaukee River.
As Europeans and migrants from the east
coast flocked here in the 1830s,
horseback and horse drawn taxis called
omnibuses became the main modes of
transportation; Milwaukee was in that
period part of the great American west.
In the ensuing decades, Milwaukee
prospered and grew into an industrial
powerhouse. Factories grew and job
seeking immigrants poured in. None of
that could have happened without
horses—horses to tug wagons full of
natural resources, and horses to deliver
beer, dry goods, milk, Ice cream, Ice
blocks for ice boxes, coal, bakery, and
any other consumer product imaginable.
Some horses had specialty jobs like
cutting ice on the Milwaukee River or
pulling a house over rolling logs to a new
emergency location.
Large breweries and other industries had
their own stables with hundreds of horses
By Frank Alioto
as well as breeding farms on the edge of
town. Horses were priced based on size,
speed, agility, and temperament,
depending on the needs of the owner.
The ideal draft horse for pulling a heavy
wagon was a percheron or Belgian breed
weighing about 1600 pounds. A quality
horse could haul 500-600 tons a day.
The Heavier the load, the more horses
would be necessary. Light delivery
vehicles used one horse, two horses were
called a “pair”, three were called a
“spike” or “a unicorn”, and four or more
were a team.
Perhaps no specialty horse was more
fascinating than the fire horse. Fire
horses lived with the firemen, stepped
right up to the dropdown harness on
receipt of an alarm, and could speed to an
alarm in the most severe weather
conditions. Furthermore, more than a
few instinctively knew the location by
memorizing the telegraph based alarm
system.
A pair of horses turns this delivery wagon on the corner of Prospect and Lafayette.
While laborers with meager means lived
walking distance to the factories, the
factory owners cruised about in fancy
horse drawn carriages. Many homes of
the “upper crust” had a rear carriage
house-- essentially a barn for the horses
and a garage for the carriage. Others sent
a servant to a local livery stable and
rented a horse and carriage for fancy
occasions or a Sunday ride.
Horses were also used in advertising.
Everyone is familiar with the Anhauser
Busch Clydsdales, but many other
companies had a signature horse breed.
Many dairy companies used white
wagons (a symbol of cleanliness), pulled
by contrasting black horses. The Armor
Packing Company had yellow wagons
with dappled grey percherons.
Horses were also used for recreation.
Milwaukee was home to a few harness
racing ovals including Cold Spring Park
on 35th and Cherry Streets, and one at
state fair grounds. Closer to home, the
Here is a well preserved horse motif on the old
Schlitz stables on 2nd and Pleasant Streets.
east side had a couple of riding
academies that served the well to do who
dwelled mainly on Prospect Avenue.
English style riding was taught and
hurdling and steeple chase competitions
were held. The most noteworthy one
was called the East Side Driving Park.
This 40-staIl stable and riding area stood
on Arlington Place and Warren Avenue,
now the site of the old Boys Club
building. It was founded in 1885 and
taken over some years later by Hans
Berg, who served in the German Calvary.
In 1922 a student who was severely
injured sued Berg and incessant worry
drove him to shoot him-self to death with
a revolver in the stable after a local
pharmacist refuse to sell him poison.
The academy closed a few years later
and was razed in 1930.
By the early 20th century, horses
gradually gave way to cars and trucks.
Debates raged constantly about which
were more efficient, less polluting or had
less accidents. “A yapping dog won’t
spook my Oldsmobile” a car promoter
might shout. “There were just as many
dumb drivers steering horses as cars, but
the horses were smarter!” retorted a
horse lover.
Today there are still many remnants of
our equestrian past. A keen eye might
spot a hayloft on some of our garages
and commercial buildings. The old
Schlitz Brewing Company stables on
King Drive and Pleasant Street sports a
wonderful horse themed motif. Also, the
Habhegger auto repair shop on Water and
Brady Streets actually started in 1932 as
a wagon and carriage builder. Ironically,
although car now rule the streets, what
term do we use to measure the power of
an engine? That’s correct, horse power!

The Beauty of Friendships
By Rebecca Christman Pfefferkorn
The beauty of close friendships is that
time doesn’t affect them much.
Over the course of my maternity leave
this spring, I re-connected with a few
old friends—a cup of coffee here, a
lunch there.
Sure, there’s always social networks to
keep in touch, if your kids let you have
any computer time to yourself. But
let’s be honest, not much compares to
a real live one-on-one conversation or
a play date in the park. And there’s
nothing like a breath of fresh, crisp fall
air – jacket or not! (Speaking of social
9 Brady Street businesses
at Milwaukee Empty Bowls
On Saturday, Oct. 9th, nine Brady
Street businesses helped to make
Milwaukee Empty Bowls a success.
I don’t know of any other area in the
city that had that many contributing
businesses. For 11 years, Milwaukee
Empty Bowls has been raising money
for local food pantries. It’s a very
simple concept... buy a ceramic bowl
for $20 that has been donated by a
local potter, sample delicious soups
and breads that are also donated by
local businesses and know that the sale
of bowl is helping to feed the hungry.

networks, are you a member of Brady
Street Association Family Group on
Facebook? Check it out!)
With the hustle and bustle of daily life,
it can be easy to lose touch. Before I
realized it, five years had gone by
since I last met with my good friend.
But that really is the beauty of old
friendships. Over a cup of coffee, we
were able to catch up and jump right
back into the present day.
New friendships have just as much to
offer. It’s been a while since the Parent
Committee organized a play date or
get together. Let’s get together, old
friendships and new.
While the weather is starting to get
colder, the good news is that fall is a
great time to play outside, pick some
apples or carve a pumpkin, or two …
or three!
Let’s meet up for some activities and
enjoy this amazing family-friendly
time of year. E-mail me at
[email protected] and
watch your inbox for some
October invitations to get out with
your kids. What are your favorite fall
activities? If weather fails us, there are
many activities in our neighborhood to
spend some time during a rain shower.
What are your favorite indoor spots?
Let me know, keep in touch and I’ll
get organizing!
So simple and so successful! Over the
last 10 years, Milwaukee Empty
Bowls has raised over $322,000 for
local food pantries. Plan to go to this
event next year! To read the full story,
